Going to college was never an option. I was passionate about music, but how much talent I actually had was another matter.
Paul Weller

You can listen to music at any moment in the day or night. Which is great, but I think it kind of devalues it as well.

There's more to distract people, isn't there? When I was a kid there was music and football and clothes. And that was kind of it, really. Those three things defined you as a person.
Paul Weller

There's always something in most world folk musics that always seems connected whether it's a bagpipe or a tambura, there's always some sort of drone instrument, and there's always percussion.
Paul Weller
Image
Sometimes you're ahead of the game and sometimes people don't get it and that's just one of those things you have to accept and carry on.
Paul Weller
Image
Coming from a little suburban town, I wasn't a hip city kid. I was quite the opposite, really. Songs like 'Saturday's Kids' rang a bell for kids all over the country. That song was about the kids I grew up with.

You can't live a lie. You have to follow your heart.

Even somebody like The Black Keys or Royal Blood, they all have this original roots base to what they do.
